Yeah, it's definitely going to wear smaller than the specs. The 42.7mm 1200t didn't feel over 40mm on the wrist. My argument for Doxa remains the same. Why not come out with two or 3 different sizes and keep them in the line up instead of making all of these "limited editions"? How can this and the 1200t not coexist? Smaller more classic size and BOR alone make it different.

You're right, but these are perfect on an Isofrane.

If I didn't have a 750T SR I would probably get one of these... I have the 1500T Pro...

Here is a wrist shot of the 1500... on my 8 inch wrist...

How about an intro thread?

You are the weirdest when it comes to watch measurements.

.3 mm?

I guess everything really isn't bigger in Texas. Someone tell Terry before his first visit - we wouldn't want him to get disappointed.

I like this one a lot, big fan of the dial. It'll wear smaller than the specs suggest.
But if like to see a no bracelet/Isofrane option as this doesn't work on bracelet IMHO.

Agree. The modern BOR is too clunky and they went further awry with this style. I like the ratcheting clasp, but it's makes me think of David's usual saying; "Same goddamn ugly five link bracelet".

Real BOR and hollow end links = hotness, IMHO

My name is Al and I'm a retired police officer from Southern California. I love watches..particularly Doxa. I enjoy physical fitness activities and am a big sports fan...USC Trojans, LA Dodgers, LA Lakers and LA...I mean St Louis Rams. I humbly apologize for the faux pas...didn't realize an intro thread was required..I enjoy reading this thread. Anything I missed?

Hey Al, welcome. I like all cops who are Trojan & Dodger fans. Because of that I'll let your strange love of Doxa slide. :grin:
